Disposable Incontinence Pants – New Discreet Convenience
Disposable Incontinence Pants New Discreet Convenience
For a long time disposable incontinence pants were extremely unpopular with people who had continence problems and with good reason. In the past, these pants resembled children's diapers with no regard to the fact that it was adults who had to wear them and who had to go out in public in them.
These garments were bulky and extremely difficult to conceal under clothing. To make matters worse they were noisy giving off a rustling sound when the wearer moved about. Things couldn't be more different today. For starters there ahave been remarkable advances in fabric technology that minimizes the profile of the pants making them virtually invisible under any kind of clothing.
These fabrics can safely handle light to medium incontinence and when teamed up with a pad can accommodate even the heaviest urine flow. Another great feature is that the fabric in these pants is soft on the skin and has the ability to wick away moisture preventing irritating rashes. More good news.
These products now come designed gender specific and actually resemble ordinary underwear. Men have a choice of boxer or shorts and the absorbent material is located in the front of the pant. Women have choices in design as well and the pants are designed to offer the most protection in the middle of the garment. While disposable pants offer the ultimate in convenience, incontinence pants come in washable and reusable styles as well. Having reusable pants obviously reduces the cost of incontinence care but they are not as convenient as the disposable type.
Some people find a mix of pants, disposable for the day and washable for sleeping, to be the best solution. Disposable incontinence pants have come a long way and so has their acceptance among sufferers. If you find yourself in need of products and are unsure what to get, contact your doctor as he or she knows what's available and can make a recommendation that fits your personal requirements.
